Snowed for hours here today. Poured r@in first, but changed over and snowed a couple inches. 3000' forecast for Mt Ellen is calling for 8-12" tomorrow night, and then more Friday!

Still very cold about 15 degrees , I was just outside cutting in a "turnaround" and secondery parking area with my snowblower off my driveway.We have about 7 inches over ice in the yard

My driveway is about 190 ' long to the garage so i make a winter" turnaround "so we can drive out into the road rather than back into it . Soon we'll have 3 fairly good sized SUV's in here when the family all arrives for Xmas plus our 2 vehicles so this is much easier for all to handle

Admit it Warp, you're just bored and like pretending that the snow being discharged from the snowblower is actually snow coming out of a snowgun! ;) :rolleyes: ;)

[size=-3]*note, I often will snowblow a "racetrack" for my dogs in the backyard for the same snowblower enjoyment[/size] :rolleyes:

It could only take me about 30 minutes to clear my driveway, but it often takes me atleast twice that amount of time for no other reason than pure snowblower enjoyment time!

I just keep the scraper blade at the bottom of the intake box elevated maybe an inch or 2 off the turf, and no grass kill and a couple of happy (and exercised) dogs!
